As an old-school Yamaha snowmobile guy, I pained for at least a decade of BNG announcements, hoping Yamaha would get back into the game, only to see them essentially get out of the sled business. 😭😢😫

Good to see that you SxS guys have something to get excited about anyway!

I'd kinda like to see a modern Rhino. 60" machine along the lines of a 700 pioneer.

I've always felt like the Viking seemed to have been designed by a Hispanic low rider enthusiast; low, wide, and under tired.

And my sole complaint with the Rmax...and it's probably just me...is that it seems a little pricey for what it is. Maybe an 850 Rmax, which makes no sense?

Well, my Wolverine 850 X2 XTR is essentially that, an RMAX with 27" tires instead of 30" and 150cc's less.

It's actually a good price for what you get.

Which is why an 850 Rmax makes no sense.

None of them are a good price for what you get.

The inflation is REAL!!!!

So Yamaha dropped 2023 model information about an hour ago. So happy I got my 2022 RMAX4 XT-R thought the $26k MSRP was top end asking for what they are. Holy cow same model 2023 jumped $3200 to $29.2k No new features other than color and decals, but it's a nice machine.

Definitely preferred the black & carbon over the new Tan colors.

Now I definitely think it's a little pricey. And that's not even the most expensive one...
